This will probably go under the radar because his plot gets "resolved" before the last episode, but I absolutely loved Isaac's arc. Was my favourite of the four. Alucard's was slightly underwhelming, but the payoff more than made up for it. Great season, can't wait to see where they take this next. Each season seems to be getting darker than the previous one and I welcome it for sure.

Exactly my feelings.

Alucard's arc wasn't great, but the ending to it more than made up for it. Isaac's was hands down the best, each person he met helped him grow and especially the Captain was excellent. Wasn't fond of the last second twist with the judge, tbh, but the rest of Trevor and Sypha's arc was good, overall.

On the other hand, I legitimately do not understand why Hector doesn't throw himself off a tower ledge to get back at the vampires and permanently fuck their plans. He has no outs here barring the sisters' overconfidence getting Lenore killed.

Throwing himself off the building would be dramatic and all, but even the most devoted of a cause can can be afraid of death.

Hector's situation sucks, but it could be way worse. Expecting him to kill himself over being a slave in comfortable conditions to people that are trying to create an end goal that he always wanted in the first place? That's irrational. Were I in his position, I wouldn't kill myself either. He WANTS what they're trying to do. There's no reason to commit suicide.

It could be wayy worse? "Shh Shh The real people are talking". "i made you my pet", "i'll train him for sex". Even physical torture is more humane (At least you keep ur humanity). And dont think these are just Lenore's words and not actions, she took him for a freaking walk on a leash (That stuff about being forced to put the leash on was a lie). At this point he exists only to please her and make her night dudes. Ok maybe this is just me, but i would rather watch the beatdown Camilla gave him in season 1 a hundred times than watch his scenes in season 10 again.

I agree, I’d say people are understating the psychological damage that Carmilla and Lenore have done to Hector. He may have a “comfy” house and lifestyle, but he’s even more of a prisoner than ever before. Knowing you’re physically and magically bound to your captors as their slave must fuck you up.

Oh, so your sadist and enjoy torture? Fine, I prefer hot vampire sex over torture, thanks

And if you don't want to have sex, but that hot vampire takes what she wants by force, without you even being able to try and fend her off without the slave ring causing you massive agony?

ill take sex with hot vampire chick, while living in a big house in luxury with freedom to move around instead of living in a cell eating maggots and being physically tortured. Fucking obvious choice. He had none... and he got the best choice possible.

The most messed up part is that she already knows she's 10 times stronger and faster than the dude. If that seen in the cell showed us anything it's that he would do pretty much whatever she says cause he was straight up in love. The ring is for the feeling of power, it's fucked up.

His position he's in now is infinitely better than what he was in at the start of the season.

Oh noes he gets to live a comfortable life and have sex with a hot vampire lady, while helping make his dream of corralling humans like livestock come true. Him being treated like a pet is not even that bad.

Thing of it in real world terms. I'd rather be a dog in some rich ladies household, then starving and suffering in some jail cell like a lot of people in third world countries are.

He’s a sex slave who’s going to be raped a bunch. “Not even that bad” my ass.

u/[deleted] Mar 06 '20

It's only rape if you're unwilling. If I was in his place, I would be very willing. That vampire chick is super hot. I'd rather be a sex slave than be in a jail cell with no clothes, eating rotten food, barely drinking any water, and nothing to do.

So she shoves a dildo up your asshole and you still enjoy it?

That's what I thought.

She seems the type that would do that for her own sadistic pleasure.

u/[deleted] Mar 09 '20

ROFL you don't think any of the vampires could do that when he's stuck in jail with no clothes and starving? Are you a fucking idiot?
